Al, Yes, I am trying to get an agetty prompt.
I can use other FreeIPMI tools such as ipmipower just fine. Using --debug with ipmiconsole shows a continuous stream of scrollable text written to the screen after having received [SOL established] . I've no BIOS options to pick a COM port for IPMI redirection. /etc/inittab has mention of tty1 through tty6, but no mention of tty0. Thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Albert Chu" <[email protected]> To: "Amit Belani" <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2010 3:38:46 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: Re: ipmiconsole hangs at [SOL established] Hi Amit, CCing freeipmi-users. I'm assuming you are trying to get an agetty prompt? I can think of two possible issues. 1) BIOS isn't redirecting serial data off the right COM port. It depends on your motherboard, but some motherboards require you to redirect off of COM2 instead of COM1. 2) The getty isn't redirecting through the right tty. e.g. maybe it should be tty1 instead of tty0. See /etc/inittab.
